Event: How to do business with the government?

The Ontario government buys a wide range of goods and services from businesses of all sizes and types.

When making purchasing decisions, the Ontario government must ensure that it manages public funds efficiently and effectively. Our goal is to achieve the best value for the money we spend. Learn more about how the Ontario government makes its buying decisions and how to do business with the government.

The “How to Do Business with the Ontario Government” seminar will provide an understanding of the competitive procurement of goods and services conducted by the Ontario government. Suppliers will learn how they can be successful through a brief review of the procurement process, how to gain access to procurement opportunities through ontario.ca/tenders, how to respond to a Request for Bids and how to market to the Ontario government.
